Just a quick note to let you know that as of today I’ve finished my fundamentals work so you should expect more Patisserie related posts from Monday onwards!
For those of you who follow my pursuits and projects beyond this blog, you will know that I put together a High Tea for charity as part of the Highway Apprentice competition. The twist with the High Tea was that it featured… A dessert bar!
The dessert bar included:
Cupcakes (Four flavours – red velvet, vegan vanilla, coffee kahlua and double choc)
Jelly Slice (Recipe is on this website! But no one makes it better than my Step-Mum)
Meringues, marshmallows, licorice allsorts, wafers and FruChocs
Caramel Slice
Chocolate Balls
Macarons in four flavours by Pastille Petite Desserts (Even though I can make them, I left them to someone else for this event)
Chocolate Dessert Shooters
Cheesecake Tarts
and this centrepiece show cake:
Stay tuned over the next few days for:
- The recipes for the chocolate balls and cheesecake tarts (they are easier than you think)
- DIY tips on running your own dessert bar
- Hints and tips on how to make your own cake just like this one!
